You should ask Tpt,
he's the one working with OAI-PMH.

Very happy Luiz that you want to mess with that page,
as we probably need some tests to make it up and running for different

as far as I know few Wikisources actually use it.

I'm currently speaking with 2 companies which do "digital lending",
meaning,
lending ebooks. I told them about that page and related.
I still have no feedback about though.
